Re: grills

Mines got the same problem. It's a very tight fit, and unless you remove the bumber to get in from behind, it will be impossible to make it fit better.

Re: grills

I managed to get my hand down the back to help get it in. I do recall it being a tight fit.

Re: grills

Just re-read this and I'd like to point out I was talking about my central Milotec grille, not anything else

Re: grills

Any idea on where I could get just the two side grills from, or would I have to fork out for the lot? I think they'd go quite nicely with my front bumper cut out (black rather than silver to match the rest).

Re: grills

Yeah, you'd have to buy the set i'm afraid. You can always try to flog the centre bit again...

Re: grills

Nope, but you could always buy some silk black paint and paint the side grille bars.

True, and if you don't want to ruin yours... I've still got my old set (silver)
